Propagation of MM virus in continuous cell lines.

چکیده
Baby hamster kidney (BHK), McCoy, and L cell lines were found to be suitable for isolation of MM virus from infected mouse brain tissue. The virus was recovered in high titer in the first passage in BHK and McCoy cells, with concomitant cytopathic effect (CPE). In L cells, virus yield was lower than in the other two cell lines and CPE was incomplete. Adaptation of the virus to BHK and McCoy cells by serial passages was evidenced by accelerated development of the CPE and increase in the virus titer. Plaques were obtained in all three cell lines when inoculated with infected mouse brain or with the tissue culture-propagated virus. In the BHK cells, the virus release preceded the appearance of CPE and maximal yield of virus was obtained after 1 to 3 days of incubation, depending on the size of inoculum. The BHK-propagated virus had the same lethality for mice as did the mouse brain-propagated stock, and there was no difference in the course of the disease caused by the two preparations.

Evaluating of Iran Razi Khedmati Bovine Kidney (IRKHBK) Cell Line for Isolation and Propagation of Viruses
Abstract Background and Aims: To identify and isolation of viruses a susceptible cell is need which can be primary or line. The use of primary cells is laborious, time consuming and expensive, while the use of cell lines is much easier and faster. IRKHBK cell line was originated from primary cells of bovine kidney by continuous passage. The aim of this study was to introduce the IRKHBK cell ...
متن کاملApplication of McCoy Cell Line for Propagation of Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1
Herpes simplex virus types 1 (HSV-1) and 2 (HSV-2) are members of the Herpesviridae family. About 40% to 80% of the world populations are infected with HSV and its prevalence is high in Iran. The high prevalence of this virus in the community and the ability of the virus in causing fatal diseases among immunocompromised patients, have encouraged studies to be performed on HSV and suitable cell ...
متن کاملLymphoblastoid cell lines: a continuous in vitro source of cells to study carcinogen sensitivity and DNA repair
Obtaining a continuous source of normal cells or DNA from a single individual has always been a rate limiting step in biomedical research. Availability of Lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs) as a surrogate for isolated or cryopreserved peripheral blood lymphocytes has substantially accelerated the process of biological investigations. LCLs can be established by in vitro infection of resting B cell...

EBV-carrying human cell lines, depending on whether the cells are derived from Burkitt's lymphoma (BL) tumor biopsies or transformed by EBV in vitro, have different growth properties in vitro. In contrast, there are no clear differences between tamarin tumor lines and tamarin LCLs in vitro. Both types of tamarin cell lines could grow in agarose and formed colonies unlike human LCLs, althoug...
